After finding coconut without traces of peanut / tree nut, I was anxious to find recipes to start baking with it. I found this one -- really easy and really yummy. They have a very chewy texture and a nice caramel flavour.

Mygirlsyd, I discovered from AnnaMarie that Dalton's brand is free of peanut / tree nuts - when I contacted them about where I could buy their products, they advised that they also produce the coconut for Sobey's "Our Compliments" and A&P / Food Basics "Equality" store brands.

Your recipe looks delicious, and much healthier! I'm going to try yours this weekend - I'll let you know how it turns out. Would you be able to make a substitution for the eggs in the recipe I posted?

No worries...it's not your fault. As I was sprinkling the tablespoon of baking soda, I was saying to myself..."this does seem like a lot"...
At least I got a good laugh as I watched my husband spit his mouthful into the garbage Just thought I'd post in case anyone else wanted to try them out.

Too funny - reminds me of the time when I was in high school and my dad (who is NOT A COOK) and I planned to make a peanut butter cake for my mom for her birthday. I specifically told my dad to wait until I got home from my part-time job... which of course he didn't.

When I walked in the door I could smell something baking. "Oh no..." I thought. For some reason I just knew things wouldn't go like they should. And sure enough, the cake started flowing over the top of the pan... It kept rising and flowing and rising and flowing... "What did you do?" I asked my dad.

"I don't know - I followed the recipe. 1 tsp of baking soda, another tsp of baking soda, this and that..."

I notice a lot of people mix those two ingredients up, that and condensed milk and evaporated milk.
